Im getting this error on the site I use it for a client I see on this page that there is a path traversal vulnerability on this extension: https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/fwdmsp/vulnerability/wordpress-mp3-sticky-player-plugin-8-0-unauthenticated-arbitrary-file-read-download-vulnerability
I did notice that you replied here that it was fixed along time ago. If so why is is this site as well as Hostzinger alerting me to remove at once and that an update was made 8.1 Have you not claimed ownership on patchstack so you can adjust this fix? I can not tell my client that this is fixed, multiple credible sources states that the current 8.0 poses extreme vulnerability to hacking. Any additional resources or details would be helpful to ease concerns and let patchstack and my hosting have the update details on the fix. Thanks
Hi.
Yes, this bug was fixed. Not sure what si going on, I l will look into it.

I looked into it if you check the current status, you will see that this vulnerability was fixed.

Thanks, I’m now having issues after enabling Bunny.net CDN, as I want my MP3 files to be served from my CDN. The player does indeed update the MP3 file after I use the direct URL from the WP media folder. My CDN adds the normal pull zone to the MP3 player file, but when I browse the page, I get the red alert “cannot find file,” even though I see that the file your player address display is the correct pull zone address. Is there something I’m missing? As I certainly require a CDN to serve my MP3s.
I need to see this online, send me a link with the track that is showing the the error.
Tibi – FWD.
Sure thanks for the quick reply as this is important audio book launch that we are using your great player for in both places here : https://aimanifesto.site/ and here https://aimanifesto.site/project/opera-cabaret/ the streams work fine when I turn our CDN off
OK, I see what’s happening, basically your .mp3 is not allowed to be played on your domain. To solve this, your mp4 must be allowed to be played on your domain. This can be done by contacting a server admin and asking them to help you with this, send them the error below, they will know what to do… I fyou like ask ChatGPT about this error it will explain in detail the issue.
Access to audio at ‘https://bunny-wp-pullzone-hqbwveqynm.b-cdn.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Basilisk_Opera_Lacey.mp3' from origin ‘https://aimanifesto.site' has been blocked by CORS policy: No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource.

hello, any woocommerce demo available? is the player visible in the shop page in order to listen to the audio without the need to open the product page?
Hi.
The player is visible on the page where you add the shortcode; if you add it to the shop page, it will appear there.
Tibi – FWD.
a ok it doesn’t have a player for each product.
Thanks anyway, great plugin 
You can create if you like a player for each product.
Tibi – FWD.
I mean it doesn’t show the players inserted in the products page, in the thumbnails of the WooCommerce store page
This is a sticky player, it will show it at the bottom of the page, any page, product, shop, tct as long as that page has the shortcode added.

Hi,
I see on this page that there is a path traversal vulnerability on this extension: https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/fwdmsp/vulnerability/wordpress-mp3-sticky-player-plugin-8-0-unauthenticated-arbitrary-file-read-download-vulnerabilityThe same page also mention that version 8.1 fixes the issue, but the current version seems to be 8.0. I would like to buy a license to update this extension on my client’s website, but I want to make sure the issue is fixed.
Thank you!
The issue was fixed a long time ago…

Hi. I need a music player that always stays active—that is, I hit play and it doesn’t cut out while I browse through different pages. Can I do that with this one?
HI.
MSP can resume playing when you go to a different page, but is not a seamless player. For that, you need a website that is using AJSX and is loading the content of your pages dynamically without reloading the entire page, so it’s not about the player, is about he website…

hello team FWD
I have Issue for the plugin, we already installed the plugin.. but we didn’t see Menu FWD player Sticky Menu on left admin menu panel. we just see setting on plugin wordpress modul setting.
Hi.
I don’t understand.
Tibi – FWD.
we didn’t see the menu (MP3 Sticky Player), on left menu admin my wordpress administrator, after instalation plugin
Did you activate the plugin?
Tibi – FWD.
Yes the plugin was active, we just see the setting on plugin list, but the menu left admin didn’t show anything
Please send me an email at tibi_diablo@yahoo.com and also confirmation that you have bought the plugin.

PreSale Question: I am very interested in purchasing this plugin but I did a search through the comments and it seems like the player was having some major issues with SoundCloud 2 years ago. I haven’t seen any other mention after that. Can you confirm that I can play my channel in soundcloud using your player? It is a probably a deal breaker if I cant. Thanks
Stat
Hi.
I am sorry but SoundCloud has closed they API so is not possible to play mp3 from SC anymore…
Tibi – FWD.
Im curious then. Wordpress has a elementor plugin that you just have to put soundcloud URL into it. It does not require a API Key at all. It works and its great but the player itself is pretty limited and the most important thing is there is no way to control the volume so I dont want to use that. If you are just feeding the URL into the player would that not work?
It uses the default SoundCould player as an embed; the API allows to play the raw .mp4 file in a different player like mine, this is the difference
Tibi – FWD.
Gotcha. So If I already have an API Key it will work but if I dont have an API Key it will not work? Or does it not work at all anymore?
Yes that is correct, if yo have an APi key it will work.
Tibi – FWD.
Ok great. Apparently you can still get access to the public API for soundcloud, but now you have to go through their support chat bot to schedule a request for an API Key. So I will check back with you after the process is complete. Thanks for the speedy responses! Appreciate it and its a breath of fresh air to see.
Welcome.
Tibi – FWD.
I received my Key and Password. I’ll be purchasing today! Thanks.
Sounds good.
Tibi – FWD.
I purchased and got the player installed. Loaded up a Soundcloud playlist and getting an error. “Soundcloud playlist can not be loaded”. I have chose different public playlist to see if that was the issue and still the same error. I created a new playlist and name it unique and added the Soundcloud secret to that specific playlist, still the same error. Could use some help.
Do you have a valid Soundcloud API key, from what I know they do not offer a key anymore.
Tibi – FWD.
Trying to load Youtube isnt working either. I get the message: the playlist with id …. is not found in the DOM.
Yes I have a key. They do provide them still but you have to submit a helpdesk ticket to have one issued.
Please read the documentation about Youtube, there is a video tutorial about how to use it, yo need a YouTube API key, and you will have to generate that.
The documentation that came with the plugin only mentions Youtube in the first paragraph about Getting Started. There is no other mention of YouTube or an API Key that is needed.
However I was just trying to test youtube…Soundcloud is the actual issue. What steps can I take to troubleshoot?
You are right, here is a full video tutorial about how to use the player including SoundCloud and Youtube.
Tibi – FWD.
I don’t see the link. Is there supposed to be a link?
I created a YouTube API Key and added that as well, same error, same issue. In Elementor edit window I am seeing an error as well: “The html element with id fwdmspMainPlaylistTest playlist is not found in the DOM, _s html element.
Please write me at tibi_diablo@yahoo.com
Thanks. Email sent.
Hi Tibi,
Is there a way for the player to populate a playlist from a folder (containing MP3s) located outside the wp-content directory?
Thanks in advance.
Hi.
I am sorry no because this opens the plugin to a serious security issue, Evanto would disable the plugin…
Tibi – FWD.
Thank you for the responce.
You are welcome.
Tibi – FWD.
Everything is setup with the proper download options and playlists with download option checked, but when you click on the download icon, nothing happens.
Please write to me at tibi_diablo@yahoo.com.
Tibi – FWD.
For some reason I can’t ave my playlists. I’ve been happily using the player for last few years and just recently I noticed that when I press the “Save main Playlist” button, the window the edit page doesn’t reload, therefore the changes are not being saved.
I’ve done some tests and only after deleting a few playlists (i have maybe
, the page got saved. I’m very worried as I need to add more playlists, while keeping the current ones. There are no options to backup the current ones and reimport them. Would you be able to assist in finding some solution? I’d be very grateful as the plugin is great!
sorry…I think I managed to make it work.. I think it was some server caching issue. It seems to be working now, so let’s ignore my message above for now. thank you and sorry again 
I am sorry there is not backup but there are plugins that can transfer data.
Tibi – FWD.
Hi Tibi, thank you for your quick reply, although it turned out, it’s something with my server cache…most likely. By the way, would you be kind to explain what plugins could I use to transfer the playlist data?
I used wp-migrate to transfer stuff from one domain to another, there are many more, ask chat gpt to help you with this stuff he is really good, it will give you step-by-step info.
Tibi – FWD.
If it’s something to discuss in a private message, let me know. I’d appreciate your help, as this is pretty important feature.
Presale question: If I insert a link to a YouTube video at the backend, will the player play it as an audio mp3 on the front-page or will it play it as an mp4 YouTube video?
Yes it will paly it in the background or if you choose to view it in the thumbnail section.
TIbi – FWD
Thanks for your response. When I hide the video, the audio will still play?
What I need to use this for is to create an mp3 platform for a YouTube channel with 100s of videos in 40 playlist. One option will be to manually convert each video to audio files, which will be a long and laborious process. Is there a simpler way to do it with the HTML5 Audio Player with Playlist?
Thanks for your response. I will be purchasing in a few hours.
Yes, the audio will still play with the video hidden.
There are two ways to use the playlist, add as the source of the playlist a YouTube playlist or channel, and the player will auto-populate the playlist with title and desc, etc, or add each video manually from YouTube in a normal playlist, the second way gives you control of the track title and desc since you can add them manually but it will take more time to cerate, I prefer the second way even if it is more laborious.

Hello I’m still waiting for your response, thank you
The refund is approved it is gone from my refund section.
Tibi – FWD,
Hello I haven’t gotten any email to this and how can I track this? How does it work?...Do I need to do anything from my end? I also want to confirm if I can go ahead to download the wordpress version without having it affect the refund process, thank you.
Please contact Envato about this, I am not sure what is going on.
Tibi -FWD.
I have forwarded a refund request to you… Kindly approve so the refund can be initiated, thank you.
Done!
Tibi – FWD,
I just purchased this plugin on this account instead of my other account (username: tutoolo) and will need a refund. I have not downloaded this. The reason is my other account I made the wrong purchase of same plugin but for Javascript version instead of the Wordpress version. On that account (username: Tutoolo) I made a complaint and was told to purchase a Wordpress version and ask for a refund on the Javascript version. Thank you for your help!
I like the audio player.
A few urgent pre-sale queries !! I will highly appreciate a quick response !!
1) Imagine a few WordPress posts with 2-3 songs each (not in a playlist, but individual tracks displayed in the post). Can the individual songs be clicked and played with this audio player? That too in such a way that the audio player dynamically gets docked to the top / bottom (sticky feature) while playing the individual song, so that the visitors can scroll the post while the clicked song plays?
2) Is it possible to choose the controls that will be visible on mobile devices? I only need to show the name of the track, play/pause button, the volume icon & slider, whereas all the other controls need to be hidden on all devices. Is this possible?
3) While using this audio player, is it possible to make the songs absolutely download-proof?
Thank you.
Hi.
1. Yes.
2. No, the player adapts automatically on mobile devices.
3. Is as good as possible but to make 100% is impossible this days.
Tibi – FWD.
Thank you so much for your quick response. I appreciate it.
While I am happy to hear that some of my requirements can be fulfilled, I was really looking forward to having control over which player features (buttons) I could show / hide on mobile devices. Is it not even possible via custom css?
I think it could be done with css.
Tibi – FWD.
Thank you once again for your quick response. I appreciate it.
You are welcome.
Tibi – FWD.
One more urgent presale query… Your quick reply will be highly appreciated. Does the audio player have the ff/ rewind controls to move forward / rewind the currently playing track by a few seconds? (say by 10 seconds)
This is available via the API, the player dose not have this functionality.
Tibi – FWD.
Thank so much for your quick reply. I appreciate. So is the API system included with the plugin at no extra cost? If yes, does the API make the ff / rewind buttons visible on the player? how does it work from UI perspective ?
Yes it is included with the plugin.
Tibi – FWD.
Great !! Thank you. A noob query…. using the API, can I make the ff / rewind buttons visible on the player along with other controls? That’s what I wish to do…
It could be done woth some work.
Tibi – FWD.
Thank you very much for your lightning fast responses. I appreciate !! So is it possible entirely using external css?
I looked into it is not possible to add buttons I side the player, you can add external buttons and use the API to control the player using the API.
Tibi – FWD.
Can the player play the same song on multiple pages as you go from the home screen to other pages, such as blog posts, etc., all while playing and not turning off, staying sticky to the bottom of the screen? I was not sure if sticky means on a page scroll or ajax with opening on other pages and having the player keep playing. When I go to your demo, it is only sticky on one page as I scroll, not when I go to other pages. I think if it does both, that would be great. Thanks
It only changes the cover of the artist that is playing and does not change the name of the artist or the title in the player when it is refreshed in the F5 browser, the player just shows the name of the artist and updated title. Will they solve this problem?
Hi.
It updates the title but it adds it to the station name that you can add manually in the playlist if you look carefully after the ‘Shoutcast example…’ you will see the current title and artist and this only happens in the player next to the buttons and scrubber, there is no point to update it in the playlist, the station name is enough.
If you like I can update the code so that it update to the playlist as well but I don’t see the point of that.
Tibi – FWD.
All the players that use metadata that codecanyon offers do that, they update the cover and the name of the artist in the player, surely you will have your reason that is respected, I was only asking if it was an error, regards. good player congratulations
.
Thank you.
Like I said the data is updated in the player title bar.
Tibi – FWD.
Could you show me an image, on my side this does not change I send you the image https://postimg.cc/yJpQyRy0
I will look into this tomorrow morning it might be an issue but you are not just buying a player you also get my support, I am the player developer so whatever issue might happen I am always here to take care of it!

So I saw the updates and bought this player again. I’m trying the Youtube player, and I’m able to add playlists. I added the playlist through shortcode on one of the page/post. 1. Is there any other way to add the player to a page/post? 2. When I load a page, it will display the player name in the url, how do I disable that? 3. When I tried to load the youtube player, it is able to play, but I can’t seem to speed up or slow down the track. 4. Also, I can’t seem to fast forward to the next point in the track or even pause the track.
Thanks for your assistance!
Also, when I tried to upload the media file to wordpress, it could play, but it shows “not defined” in the title…, How do I fix it? thanks
Hi.
1. The player can be added via shortcode.
2. That is called deeplinking it can be disabled in the preset, just set Use deeplinking to no.
3. The speed for youtube currently is not working because is not fully supported by the Youtube API, I will look into this maybe Youtube has changed this.
4. I don’tunderstand this one.
Please write to me at tibi_diablo@yahoo.com.
Tibi – FWD.
Thanks, the disabling deeplinking worked.
Looking forward to the youtube update!
for 4. When I press play, I can’t skip forward in time, say at the 1 min mark, or 2 min mark. The player has sound, but the play icon doesn’t seem to be working. I also can’t pause the player while it’s playing.
Also, how do I fix the “not defined” in the title of the track for the normal music player?
Which other options are currently working? I haven’t tried the shoutcast or icecast
4. I caan’t replicate the issue with the play/pause button, as for the forward the video/audio can be done using the player scrubber or the right/left keyboard, please send me a link with the page where you are testing this at tibi_diablo@yahoo.com.
About the not defined you have to add rack title, scroll down when you add a track you will find the text area for this.
About the formats, please read in the player page demo all supported formats https://webdesign-flash.ro/p/msp .
Tibi -FWD.
The folder option just makes the player load continuously, can’t get it to work, how do I fix it?
I need to see this, please write to me at tibi_diablo@yahoo.com.
Tibi – FWD.
I’ve emailed and still waiting for the updates and replies…
I emailed to tibi_diablo@yahoo.com, did you receive anything? email me and I reply instead if you still can’t see it englishbhff@gmail.com
Got it, I anwered you.
Tibi – FWD.
I still can’t get the player to work, I have tried uploading to wordpress media, but when I click play, it says source not found. It also says undefined even when I added title to the text box.
The youtube option seems great, but it doesnt seem to be able to fast forward. The folder option can’t seem to read the audio too.
What other method can I get this player to work?
Answered you via email.
